Releasing Bout is a miscarriage of the small justice for all of his victims, many who were impoverished Africans in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Rwanda. Bout should never have been released. He should have had his life prolonged as possible so he spent as much time in jail as possible.

A boycott is an active campaign against an entity. A consumer saying “I don’t want to buy this” is one consumer making a choice. Even if it’s a group of consumers making this decision, it doesn’t make it a boycott. All I see in these comments is people saying they don’t want to purchase future products associated with…

This has nothing to do with screwing over anyone. As consumers we have the choice to purchase a product (that is years old, mind you) or not based on the information at hand. We are not under any obligation purchase a product that we don’t want to, regardless of motive for not wanting to buy it, whether or not one…

So because you didn’t no one else should?

Ok, so taking all this into account why would you advocate for a race to the bottom?

Hi EternalNooblet!

That’s not being cheap, that’s gaming the system so it benefits them at the expense of everyone else. If the rich were truly cheap, they wouldn’t be buying megayachts and mansions and whatever other vanity purchases they want to make.

You think $1,900 a month is enough to cover rent, food, utilities, insurance, and literally everything else, without even saving some money for rainy days?

This is a contract worker who has to pay their own taxes and provide their own benefits. The $3,000 is not take home.

The rich do spend - they spend it on themselves and often at the expense of everyone else. Those megayachts aren’t figments of the imagination.

“Record profits mostly come from expanding player base.”

Or yet another example of a poorly optimized PC port.

You’re not very smart if you think I was comparing Nintendo to Trump, it was a figure of speech to tell you that Nintendo is extremely litigious.

What risk?

They don’t have to live stream for this imaginary scenario to happen. They can far more easily just make a call or send a text instead of hoping their entourage is available to watch their livestream.

Panda does not have the legal capacity to shut down the tournament, they needed Nintendo to do that. Nintendo could’ve just said no.

I have no idea why this company still has such hardcore supporters. Their games are largely derivative aside from a few truly great games, their hardware is consistently the poorest performing and is updated once in a blue moon, they have the most litigious legal department aside from Donald Trump and have…

Comparing the regular Switch to a Steam Deck is apples to apples though specs wise. If you’re only looking at cost and not features, then sure you have a point. But it’s the features that justify the greater cost so not taking that into consideration is silly.

Let’s check your math (all prices are CAD).

“they will laugh at you and point out that your house is the biggest dump in town. is that a deflection of your original point? yes. is it justified? also yes”
